Catherine Frazee, Professor Emerita in Disability Studies, blogs intermittently at http://fragileandwild.com and is an active advisor for the Vulnerable Persons Standard at http://www.vps-npv.ca. She spends her time worrying about autonomy run amok and seeking out kinder, gentler understandings of vulnerability and dependence. When discouraged, she reaches for fresh air, the rustle of natural worlds and the dazzlements of artful resistance.
